Provided his nick-name is 'WR', wouldn't it make more sense to call him wookie-robo?

This doesn't pace the power level, as the graph still looks like a WRI, it's just repeatable and still offers the right training stress. Still hurts like hell, puts me squarely in my AWC zone, but allows for a better overall workout.

Honestly, I can only do one all-out 1' test in a week, and doing one the next week might be pushing it.
It could be due to my lack of experience and knowledge, that I don't have a power meter, or both, but what is:

RPE
ATP
WRI (waterroackets intervals? )
AWC
?

Thank you.
